POEM dated: "Feb. 18, 1980"

I can relate. Though Kate & Liam are not infants (as I was when my mom wrote this) I am guilty of not writing more. Thank you for this Mom!!! "Feb. 18, 1980" "Dear Darby, I write these words in between trips to your crib I'm stuffed full of feeling for you-- so much I want to put down,    to remember    to share and then you cry and I run and the writing that would keep                   it all for us is never done. I love your demanding I love being your mother and I would rather hold you rather feel your tiny fuzzy      baby-haired head rather see your smile and watch me in your eyes than write a best seller. or anything. So please understand when you ask me some day        what was it like? and I don't remember or why I didn't write more    to you or about you, Darby, I was so busy loving you."
